ROM-DOS Internal Commands 4-47

CONFIG.SYS Command
The MENUDEFAULT command allows you to set the default menu-item
choice and a time-out value for making a menu selection. This command
can only be used within a menu configuration block in the CONFIG.SYS
file.
Syntax
MENUDEFAULT = blockname[,timeout]
Remarks
The blockname argument specifies the default menu item. The value for
blockname must match a configuration block name defined elsewhere in
your CONFIG.SYS file.
The optional time-out argument represents the number of seconds ROM-
DOS waits for a user input selection before initializing your system with
the default configuration. The time-out period can be set to a value
between 0 and 90. If you select 0, the default menu item is automatically
implemented without a wait. If you do not enter a time-out value, ROM-
DOS will not continue until the Enter key is pressed.
If your system BIOS does not support a video display directly, such as
Datalight’s miniBIOS, please refer to the MENUCOLOR command for
special instructions.
